I'm sorry to tell you... but if you've piled thousands of bales and Deere is the only one that can make a bale to your satisfaction... then it tells me one thing. You don't know how to set a baler...
They can all make a good bale if you learn how to set them.
I'm frequently amused at how various balers are condemned on this forum and around 'here' locally in favor of NH or Deere when in reality they all use one of two knotter designs and for the most part use three variations on their feeder concept...
It's funny to hear IH condemned as a bananna baler when Deere used the same feeding system...which the same guy thinks is gospel... then the next guy bitches about NH's flow action... and yet another complains about Ford and Massey's feed fork system. They're all no good depending on who you listen to.
Ignorance is bliss...
Hesston has fewer moving parts. One feeder. 2 bearings. One crank... and it works reliably.
Don't know what's so hard about that. Compare that to an auger, a feed fork or forks, a dozen bushings that forever wear out... aluminum fingers that break off... etc.

If the only thing you have to fall back on is thrower design, then that's a whole different issue than the baler itself. Since I don't use any of them, you can preach to the green choir all you like... but I suspect throwers are much like balers. Adjustment and a little bit of actual knowledge.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract. ... [Read Article]
